A forgotten woman changed *your* life with a dessert🍮🧫🦠 You have (likely) never heard of her. That's why this story is important. That's why we *need* your help. We are creating a graphic novel! Please support us on Patreon, if you can 👇🏽 patreon.com/corradonai

Elated that my science poem has been published in Consilience Journal: "The Grand Hotel Infini is Closed Tonight" about Georg Cantor: consilience-journal.com/issue-24-the-g…

Thank you for the highlight, @TheScientistLLC and Laura Tran! the-scientist.com/reviving-a-for…

Thanks a lot for sharing, @MicrobioSoc!

@markowenmartin Just reading Ed Yong's "l Contain Multitudes" and there's quite some references to her research!

When I feel low, I remind myself of how kind and inclusive microbiology has been to me. I have become friends with some remarkable minds, like the irreplaceable force of symbiotic nature named Margaret McFall-Ngai. So much smarter than I will ever be, but so kind and supportive

More sketches! Follow to see how they'll develop-- --support if you can't wait for the book to get published! 😄 patreon.com/posts/15143005…

One of my favorite histories we've published. I never appreciated just how crucial agar was during WWII. The British and Japanese mobilized troops to hunt for red algae to isolate agar, as it was needed to manufacture penicillin for soldiers. Check out the full essay 🔻

I wrote a feature article about agar for @AsimovPress -- please have a read! 🧫🦠🌿 press.asimov.com/articles/agar

@markowenmartin That's funny, I didn't

@jan_corro I will look. Do you know this one? youtube.com/watch?v=RALtqF…

I truly have been obsessed by tardigrades for many years. I found a felted sculptor years ago who created tardigrades. I lost one, but still have this one, "Blue Starri Tardi," named by Jennifer Gardy years ago. I'm on the lookout for more!

You are the Deus Ex Machina of this story "The Dessert that Changed the World" Because only readers can help bring back Fanny Angelina Hesse's lost memory (at least that's my hope!) patreon.com/posts/you-are-…

@GermJuggler 🤣 Dave, have you come across some with agar? I never have in Indonesia but heard about an agar-based coffee beverage in Japan

Hi. My name is Dave and I have a boba problem. The tapioca pearl withdrawal is kicking in.

With this kind of support nothing can go wrong. Dear Michael, Dave & dozens more wonderful people helping & supporting us: Thank you. patreon.com/posts/we-have-…

Three words to describe our story! The Dessert that Changed the World is a story that pays tribute to the invisible. It tells of why growing microbes is important for science & medicine... and of the forgotten woman who made it possible. patreon.com/posts/anticlim…
